and heat transfer surfaces. The softening process is a chemical precipitation process, where lime (Ca(OH) 2), and soda ash (Na 2 CO 3), are added to form insoluble precipitates (primarily calcium carbonate and magnesium hydroxide) with the hardness-causing minerals. The first step of the process is to add lime and raise the pH to 9-10.

The flowsheet for a coal preparation plant can typically be represented by a series of sequential unit operations for sizing, cleaning, and dewatering (Fig. 18.1).This sequence of steps is repeated for each size fraction, since the processes used in modern plants have a limited range of applicability in terms of particle size (Osborne, 1988).As a …

The blended coal mass is heated for 12 to 20 hours for metallurgical coke. Thermal energy from the walls of the coke chamber heats the coal mass by conduction from the sides to the middle of the coke chamber. During the coking process, the charge is in direct contact with the heated wall surfaces and develops into an aggregate "plastic zone".

Coal is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock composed mostly of carbon and hydrocarbons. It is the most abundant fossil fuel produced in the United States. Coal is a nonrenewable energy source because it takes millions of years to create. The energy in coal comes from the energy stored by plants that lived hundreds of millions of
2. Process description of a coal-fired power plant. A coal-fired power plant burns coal to produce electricity. In a typical coal-fired plant, there are pulverisers to mill the coal to a fine powder for burning in a combustion chamber of the boiler. The heat produced from the burning of the coal generates steam at high temperature and pressure.
